Research direction

Start by reproducing `choco upgrade all` from Chocolatey 0.10.15 to 0.11.1 and inspect the antivirus or potentially unwanted software report. The issue provides no file or test entry point; done would mean identifying whether the warning is a false positive and documenting or fixing the cause so the upgrade completes safely.
